My take on Teneb stresses creature destruction, both targeted and mass. I haven't included much recursion or card draw. I also stayed away from sac cards and tokens. The deck just aims to bring death with every turn.
Below, I mark off mana cost, price, and ability. I need to cut 3 cards from this deck. Suggestions welcome.
This is a budget deck--only a handful of cards are over 4 dollars, and many are easily replaceable. Pernicious Deed is probably the exception. If it weren't budget-oriented, then I would toss in a tooth and nail, a vindicate, and a damnation.
